EXCELLENT!! This would be one word to describe my vacation week at La Scuola Di Furio in June of 2018. There are many others, all positive just too many to list. I cannot say enough good things about this holiday home and I hope whoever is planning a trip to this area will book here and undoubtably find the same. The property is perfectly located with a short distance by car to all amenities and a fantastic home base for day trips while you explore more of Tuscany. I traveled with 3 women friends and we stayed in two different suites in the main building. Both lovely, extremely, extremely clean, well appointed with anything you would want or need, just add groceries and wine; cannot forget the wine! The rooms are spacious, open kitchen and seating area, comfortable beds, ample seating areas both inside and out. A lovely terrace for enjoying watching the sunset and discussing your day. The grounds are very well maintained, the pool is wonderful and perfect for an evening swim or for taking a book, a towel, and just sitting back reading, daydreaming or just enjoying the peacefulness of your surroundings. Our hosts Tiziana, Walter, and Napo could not have been more wonderful. Even before we arrived we received cards from Tiziana welcoming us. When we arrived she was there immediately, provided personal referrals to grocery stores, restaurants and advice for our day trips. She even provided direction on the train system and helped us on our first journey. Never more than a call or What’s App away our questions were answered. we had many adventures however there were a couple of highlights. One was a gracious tour of the family business where high-end shoes are manufacturing from beginning to end. The other was when we convinced Tiziana to join us for a day in Cortona. How many people would take a whole day to tour with her guests. This location is surrounded by beauty, lovely winding roads to walk and explore, take some photos so you will always have a reminder of this little piece of the world. A long post, I know, however I cannot leave without mentioning the other villa on-site. While the main building is more traditional with a rustic Tuscan flare the other villa is fabulous as well. More of a modern contemporary feel. Think winding staircase, leather furniture, two bedrooms, bathrooms, just walking in you will fall in love. Either will not disappoint.

Loved our apartment! An authentic Italian villa. Tiziana made sure that we had everything we needed and more! The view is amazing, it is close proximity to Lucca (which I loved), Pisa, the beach and Florence! Thank you, Tiziana! I hope to be back in the future!

La Scuola di Furio is a very, very nice location to explore Tuscany: Florence, Pisa, Lucca, San Miniato, Vinci,
Pistoia or even the seaside. It is located on a hill - with a fantastic view - in a quiet area where you can
almost feel like a local. The main house and Villa Maura are surrounded by a park and there is a large and
clean pool. We had been staying in Villa Maura for 2 weeks (2 adults + 4 kids). The villa is spacious, clean,
really well-equipped and comfortable. In the back of the villa is your own barbecue place. Our host Tiziana
was very welcoming and helpful, and provided local information and recommendations on what to do and
see in the area. Tiziana and her brother Walter made everything for us to relax and enjoy our holidays.
Grazie mille! We would definitely stay there again.

I highly recommend this location, this property and working with Tiziana. You wont regret your stay here.
Our family of 5 including children ages 15, 10 and 3or stayed here last summer and had a very memorable
stay. Great food, great recommendations and help from Tiziana, great pool and perfect scenery. Must
have a car but puts you very central to many traveling locations and gives you a very peaceful place to rest
and relax. Many, many thanks Tiziana!

Great villa and superb hosts - Tiziana and Walter were so helpful and always on hand. The villa is spotlessly
clean, had everything we needed for our stay and has a wonderful view over the local hills. The swimming
pool was a great place to relax on lazy days. The location is ideal - mid way between Florence and Pisa. We
made trips to Florence (by car and also by train - recommend train from Empoli), Gimignano (recommend
going later in day when day trippers are leaving - magical at night), Vinci, Pistoia and others. Our hosts
provided lots of useful information and recommendations where to eat. We would certainly recommend
Trattoria Ferretto in Querce. There are also plenty of large supermarkets within 5-10 minute drive. It was
lovely to cook and eat outside on an evening (and breakfast). Great WiFi too for our 15 year old daughter!!
We loved it.

We love this place. We first visited in 2008 with our baby son and returned in June 2011 with our son now
four and our baby daughter. The apartments are immaculately clean, well equipped and comfortable, The
grounds are beautiful and well maintained, The facilities are great - there really is everything you need,
including a washing machine. Th2e pool area is the best we have experienced in 10 years of independent
holidaying in Italy. It is clean, well kept and set slightly away from the house making it safer when young
children are wandering around on the lawns. Tiziana and Walter could not be more helpful and they
provide helpful information about the surrounding area. I would recommend La Scuola to anyone.
